New patch available (2.12)

[Scott Hebert]

For me, the real highlight of this patch is Desert Tombs. While I didn't have much of a problem with them before, what I like so much about them now is the tight thematic focus given to them. As I've stated elsewhere, the whole Banefire idea really works well with them. The Shaman replacement is good, and the Tomb Guard seems almost wholly unnecessary, but a welcome addition.

I haven't looked at Pangaea much, as I have a hard time 'getting into them', but I might try New Era again, if Dryad Hoplites are a feasible strategy now.

Thanks for a great patch.
